Snake venom addiction, known as ophidism, is a concerning and uncommon form of substance abuse. Unlike traditional drugs, snake venom is now gaining attention as a potential alternative. According to a report published in 2021, this dangerous trend appears to be unique to India, with users resorting to snake venom after trying various psychotropic substances. Cobra venom is the most commonly used type, obtained from snake charmers and smugglers. It is turned into a powder and consumed by mixing it with drinks, with prices ranging from Rs 20,000-25,000. Half a liter of snake venom can fetch a substantial amount in the international market, and its effects can last for hours or even days. While unusual, snake venom addiction is a reality, and its consequences are severe.

Elvish Yadav, a popular content creator and Bigg Boss OTT 2 winner, recently found himself in the midst of a significant controversy. He was accused of supplying snake venom at a rave party held in Noida's Sector-51, an accusation based on a complaint by Gaurav Gupta of the People for Animals (PFA), run by BJP parliamentarian Maneka Gandhi. Elvish's name appeared in an FIR, along with five others, under wildlife sections 9, 39, 49, 50, 51, and IPC section 120B.

Nine snakes, including cobras, two-headed snakes, one red snake, and one python, were recovered at the party, along with 20 milliliters of snake venom.

Elvish Yadav denied these accusations completely, promising to surrender himself if found guilty. He said, "When I woke up, I saw the FIR in which it was written that Maneka Gandhi's NGO (People for Animals) had filed this case. That lady was saying that I roam around with snakes around my neck. All that was for the shooting of a song and nothing else. I will not spoil my name and my family's name by indulging in all these illegal activities. If I have even one percent involvement in this case, I will surrender myself, whether the punishment is 10 or 100 years. Everyone knows that my level has not fallen so low that I will do this kind of work," Elvish said. 

According to statements released by the police, during the questioning of the five accused individuals, they admitted to supplying snake venom at rave parties allegedly organized by Elvish Yadav. The investigations are ongoing, and the seized snake venom has been sent for testing to determine its psychotropic properties. Additionally, the police have conducted raids and arrests, striving to uncover the full extent of the illicit activities associated with the case.

As of the latest update, the five individuals arrested in connection with the case remain in police custody, providing further information to aid the investigation. The police are rigorously pursuing all leads and evidence to ensure a thorough and impartial inquiry into the matter.

We have coined the term "Semen facts" to highlight the detrimental impact of baseless allegations and smear campaigns on social media. 

There exist (so-called) influencers who falsely accuse others of criminal activities and plagiarism, which is not a joke. Semen Says that #ElvishYadav is a Gamla Chor and that #AbhishekMalhan steals content. Well, this is the perfect example of the new term that I give to social media today, and it's called a 'Semen-fact.'

The controversy surrounding Elvish Yadav calls for a thorough examination of the allegations and the evidence presented to ensure a fair and unbiased investigation. Accusations should not be taken as undeniable truths until proven with substantial evidence and investigation.

In the wake of such controversies, it is crucial to approach allegations cautiously and recognize the significance of waiting for a comprehensive investigation before jumping to conclusions. False claims can irreversibly damage an individual's reputation and have far-reaching consequences beyond the immediate situation. The gravity of the accusations calls for a responsible and judicious approach, emphasizing the importance of evidence-based judgment and the avoidance of spreading unverified information. It is only through a transparent and just investigation that the truth can emerge, allowing for an informed and fair resolution to the matter at hand.

In the age of social media, the spread of misinformation and false accusations has become alarmingly common. Accusing someone of criminal activities without proper evidence can lead to defamation and tarnish reputations irreparably. It's crucial for individuals to be mindful of the consequences of their words and actions.

False information can take a toll on a person's mental health, causing severe emotional distress and suffering. As such, it's essential to verify information before accepting it as the truth.

Controversies surrounding public figures like Elvish Yadav often raise significant questions about the reliability of the information presented. Accusations without a proper investigation can have severe consequences, both for the accused and society at large. While it's essential to hold individuals accountable for their actions, it's equally crucial to ensure that the accusations are based on verified facts and evidence.

It's important to note that defamation and false allegations can have far-reaching consequences, affecting not only the person in question but also their families and followers. Spreading hate and false information is detrimental and goes against responsible social media conduct.

We strongly believe in waiting for the results of a fair investigation before drawing any conclusions about Elvish Yadav's involvement in the snake venom controversy. Accusations should not be treated as facts, and due process should be followed. It's only after the truth emerges that any judgments should be made.

Ultimately, it's a reminder for all of us to exercise caution and responsibility on social media. Spreading rumors, misinformation, and unsubstantiated claims can harm individuals and their reputations, and it is our collective responsibility to prevent this from happening.
